The Parisian
 

Roll On Friday.

Welcome to The Parisian, your source for what's on this week, and this weekend, in Paris. Looking for clubs, gigs, art shows, exhibitions, film, dance and theatre in Paris? We sort through hundreds of events every week and bring you the cream of the crop.

There's a nice ADSR shape to this week's cultural calendar - we slowly build up the pressure with weekday performances from Laurie Anderson, Yuksek and Sylvain Chauveau and exhibitions Vincent Olinet and Philippe Decrauzat until the peak of the week on Friday, when Wide Style hosts some of the most exciting electronic artists around, Qwartz 2010 looks at the work of Pierre Schaeffer, Splash bring us the cream of UK dubstep and Djoon bring it's allstar cast together for a supergroup style bash!

See you on the other side...

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
